ENERGY INVESTMENT RECOVERY PROGRAM

Maximize-Return

Maximize Your Return on Surplus Asset Sales

Liquidity Services operates the world’s largest industrial‑asset marketplace, backed by 25 years of cultivating qualified buyers in the energy sector and beyond. Our flexible sale strategies, designed to maximize competition for your assets, deliver the highest possible recovery while fitting your specific timeline and constraints.

Idle equipment is more than clutter; it’s stranded capital. Letting assets sit in warehouses or remote job sites ties up cash your organization could reinvest into core operations. And unlike fine wine, surplus assets don’t improve with age: conditions deteriorate, documentation disappears, and newer technologies make yesterday’s models less attractive. A disciplined, recurring review of slow‑moving or idle inventory is essential. When an item is deemed surplus, we move quickly, matching it with motivated buyers while it still commands peak value.

Notably, our programs pay for themselves. The proceeds from surplus asset sales fully fund the service, turning idle equipment into immediate working capital without touching your budget.

Global-Sales

Global Sales — Your Comprehensive Surplus Asset Solution

Whether you have a single piece of idle machinery or an entire facility’s worth of equipment, Liquidity Services streamlines the valuation and sale of your surplus assets.

With Liquidity Services, you move nothing. We sell your assets right where they sit, sparing relocation costs and logistics headaches. Our always‑on marketplace attracts a global network of qualified buyers, so even small lots receive maximum visibility and competitive bidding. When large projects arise, our seasoned team orchestrates every phase—cataloging thousands of assets, marketing them to the right buyers, and managing transactions through final settlement: one partner, one seamless process—your comprehensive surplus asset solution.

Compliance

Audit Ready, Compliant, and Secure

Selling surplus assets is not your team’s core competency. Neither is managing the rigorous scrutiny transactions receive from finance teams, auditors, and external partners. By removing employees from the marketing, sales, negotiations, and cash handling involved in surplus asset sales, you minimize risk, ensure your surplus‑asset program meets the highest governance standards, and maximize returns.

Liquidity Services delivers a fully compliant, audit‑ready workflow:

  • Transparent Records – Detailed documentation of asset valuation, bidding activity, and final sale prices stored for easy audit access.
  • Secure Funds Handling – We collect proceeds, manage tax requirements, and provide clear, timely remittances.
  • Regulatory Safeguards – Continuous screening of our global buyer network prevents transactions with denied parties, sanctioned countries, or restricted individuals.

While Liquidity Services manages every step of the valuation and sale process, your employees will be free to focus on higher‑value priorities.

Turn Asset Management into a Strong Balance Sheet

Every upgrade, expansion, or closure leaves behind equipment, parts, spares, and machinery that no longer earn their keep. Converting those items into cash, while they still carry market value, immediately offsets project costs and boosts return on capital employed. A disciplined process is key: quickly review contingency materials, decide what goes back to inventory or the vendor, and release the surplus to market without delay.

Inventory value is taxed locally. Surplus and underutilized equipment, spares, and even parts for equipment that no longer exists can inflate that tax. Monetizing slow-moving, over-max, or obsolete items frees square footage, trims carrying costs, and delivers fresh working capital to be redeployed where it matters most.

For large enterprises, visibility is half the battle. Liquidity Services' proprietary AssetZone® platform gives every division a real-time view of idle assets across the organization. Teams can redeploy equipment already on hand instead of repurchasing it, reducing expenses, and move assets to sale faster than ever when redeployment isn't viable. That's good stewardship in action, turning surplus into capital and opportunity.

Sustainability

Advance Sustainability Through Surplus Asset Management

An investment recovery program, by its nature, will support an organization’s sustainability goals. By prioritizing resale, refurbishment, reuse, and reduction to landfill, you transform idle equipment from a liability into a sustainability win.

Every asset that finds a second life prevents a new one from being manufactured, avoiding the raw material extraction, energy consumption, and transportation emissions embedded in production. By returning surplus assets to work through an investment recovery program, your organization delivers sustainability you can count, audit, and commend.
